Why is TikTok so damn obsessed with Gypsy Rose Blanchard?

Gypsy Rose Blanchard is the internet's new IT girl, despite being a convicted murderer, but why? How did we get here? And what is Gypsy planning next?
This week we're scrolling deep into the rebirth of Gypsy Rose.

3:25 horrified that my town might become a tourist destination but excited for the intergalactic instagram archive museum

What a incomprehensible situation she's in. I truly hope things don't take a horrible turn. At least she's owning her guilt? I really don't know what to think of all of it honestly. It's an incredible story.

But in all seriousness thanks for covering this the way that you did, Benedict! I didn't realize how people have been treating Gypsy and her case until I saw Caitlin Reilly's parody interview and I am horrified. People need to leave that poor young woman alone...

Amazing Lil Jon impression 😂 that made me laugh. I totally agree with what you said though, this is the current hot topic until people get bored but it’s just weird because this is clearly a vulnerable young woman who really shouldn’t be dealing with public pressure and opinion like this fresh out of prison. it’s very Black Mirror-esque tbh

I think you're right. I think in a couple months this is not going to be all rainbows and sunshine.

My mom makes pumpkin cheesecakes from scratch a few times a year so I don't need to go out for fancy treats

[deshomasho]

Anything with chocolate tbh or churros, honestly I want her to be happy

Много читала об этой истории, я рада, что несмотря на всё пережитое и на свою ужасную ошибку, она приняла своё наказание и сейчас продолжает жить дальше! Очень сильная девушка.

[aporue]

what I find troubling is why people are so obsessed with stories like this.

[amandavoth]

My favorite fancy dessert is classic plain cheesecake, with a bit of fruit on top

[aporue]

really seems like people adore evil.and that's what this criminal is.

[ourania_a]

[mwmheps]
